Sunday Simulacra - Version 4.46

As always, our skull hunters are out and about in different locales, capturing these randomly hidden skulls for our readers to enjoy.

Toni Pedrozo, "found this nice piece of accident art. Guess some dudes burned plastic or something. You can find it in Switzerland/ Effretikon."



A former student of the Skull Master, Tim Harper, writes, "Saw this in the window of a closed shop off of Midlothian Turnpike--don't know if you can tell from the photos, but it's that black plastic they stick up in the windows of strip mall shops when they close down so you can't see inside. Looked like the profile of a skull to me."



And Ann Losee had some help from her kids with this find. "My daughter's plate after a dinner of tortilla burgers and oven sweet potato fries. My son Tommy showed the plate to me and said it looked like a skull."



Thanks to you all for yet another great round of skulls lurking around our everyday world. Keep your peepers peeled and you might find one to submit yourself.

[Flashback Friday] #330 Bent Objects Skull

Welcome to another addition of Flashback Friday.** This year the guest editors, Citizen Agent, Azurafae, and myself, Tatman, are taking turns counting down our personal favorite 17 skulls from the Original 365.25 Year. So please join us as we visit the archives and add our additional commentary on some of the original pieces.

14. #330 Bent Objects Skull



I discovered Terry Border's Bent Objects blog around the same time that Skull-A-Day entered my life so I always relate the two together. It seems that the two blogs have a lot of overlapping fans. We all love Terry's art here at Skull-A-Day so you can imagine my extreme pleasure the day that Noah posted this beauty. Like a tale straight from the mind of Scorsese, Mustard has had enough of Ketchup's popularity and the unwanted attention from the fast food moguls is enough to make the condiment family pull the plug on the pretty boy of the bunch. No more late night dips with the French fries, no more cameo appearances in the fancy sauces that he loved to lavish in.

Terry's ingenuity in making everyday objects come to life is a strong rival to the Skull Master's ability to create skulls out of just about anything. Like two powerful minds melding from different points of the spectrum, the Bent Objects Skull brings out the best in blog creativity. Plus, a skull painted in ketchup is just the right color for the gruesome bloodiness that most people expect in skull artworks so you know it's a winner. Be sure to check out the original post for a close up detail shot of the actual ketchup skull here.

**Flashback Friday was a weekly countdown of the fan selected top 52 skulls of Skull-A-Day 1.0.
